About me
I have been an Iyengar Yoga teacher for over twenty years, gaining experience working with people's bodies and breath. Psychodynamic Psychotherapy has many parallels with Iyengar Yoga in that it emphasises the individual's needs and the importance of the process.
Having a positive experience of therapy myself has given me a powerful sense of what therapy can offer. I found and continue to find therapy an incredible tool. I work warmly and non-judgementally to support you through changes and emotional challenges. My work is supervised in accordance with BACP standards.

Approach
Treatment Approaches
Body therapyRecommended for those who want to connect their mind and body to release stress or trauma through physical sensations and movement.
Integrative therapy Recommended for those who prefer a flexible approach that combines different therapies to meet their unique needs.
Psychodynamic therapyRecommended for those looking to explore their emotions deeply and understand how past experiences shape their present life.
My foundation and post-graduate certificate are in Integrative Psychotherapy, but I wanted to focus more on Psychodynamic Psychotherapy because I resonate with the theory.
Psychodynamic therapy helps clients understand how past experiences and unconscious patterns influence their current feelings and relationships. It’s about getting to the root of the problem to create long-lasting change.
Experience
I have over two decades experience of working with people as a Yoga teacher.
My clinical experience includes working with The Good Mental Health Company in Elephant and Castle. I am currently working in private practice.
Education
I undertook a Master’s degree in Psychodynamic Counselling and Psychotherapy from Goldsmiths University of London (with distinction).
My undergraduate degree is in Social Anthropology, at the London School of Economics. I am interested in how culture and larger societal norms and pressures impact the individual . I work to maintain cultural sensitivity and understanding.
